Hi Group,
Wondering is there any latest document/article related to CFengine 3, which 
could cover the issues as mentioned in the following Book Chapter:


Book Title: Automating Linux and Unix System Administration
Chapter Name: Configuring Systems with Cfengine (ByNate Campi &Kirk Bauer)

Link: http://www.springerlink.com/content/p287583278n274p8/about/

I am interested to use CFengine for an integrated approach with a possible 
example scenario: 

Using a Vulnerability Assessment tool (Nessus or OpenVAS), there is a target 
host which have a vulnerable package installed and needs an upgrade. How can I 
invoke CFengine to automatically remedy that particular vulnerability by 
applying a latest patch. How can I define a CFengine policy (set of promises) 
for this?

Secondly, a database using some default password and the particular node is 
susceptible to an attack Or there's an open port which could be targeted by an 
attacker .... How to I call CFengine (write a promise) to remedy such type of 
vulnerabilities?

Any possible hints and/or examples would be highly appreciated.

Regards

-JanĀ
